The Twyman-Stokes award is given to a player deemed ‘the best teammate based on selfless play, on- and off-court leadership as a mentor and role model to other NBA players, and commitment and dedication to team,’ according to a press release sent out by the team. Curry was one of 12 candidates for the award.

But Curry, after making 12-of-23 shots in Game 3, for 36 points, warmed up on the Chase Center floor before Game 4 and simply could not miss. The league's X account posted, "54 SECONDS OF STEPH JUMPERS. NO CUTS. NO MISSES."

NEW YORK (AP) — Stephen Curry picked up another NBA award Monday, being voted the Twyman-Stokes Teammate of the Year by his peers in the league.
